The Lençóis Maranhenses National Park (PNLM), covers the municipality of Barreirinhas and was created in June 1981, with an area of 155,000 hectares, of which 90,000 hectares of the park are made up of white sand dunes and seasonal lagoons of rainwater.

The Lagoa Azul and the Lagoa Bonita are two of the largest lagoons, with their natural pools of crystal clear waters. The park is composed of areas of restinga, fields of free dunes and oceanic coast, being visited all year by tourists from all over the world

Best known city of the Lençóis Maranhenses, Barreirinhas is located 250km from São Luís - capital of the state of Maranhão, and is the main base for those who wish to explore the region.

Imagine a scenario of endless dunes and sparkling lagoons, shaped by the incessant dance of wind and water over millennia. This is the Lençóis Maranhenses National Park, a testament to wild beauty and the importance of conservation.

The history of this paradise began to be formally written on June 2, 1981, when the federal government, aware of the uniqueness and fragility of this ecosystem, decreed the creation of the Lençóis Maranhenses National Park. The main objective was to protect this unique landscape, ensuring the preservation of its geological formations, its biological diversity and its water resources.

But why a national park in such a peculiar place?

The answer lies in the extraordinary combination of natural factors that converge in this region:

Strong and constant winds: Coming from the Atlantic Ocean, the trade winds carve the dunes in continuous movements, creating a constantly changing scenery.

Large amount of rain in the first half: The rainy season fills the depressions between the dunes, forming the famous freshwater and crystal clear lagoons.

Proximity to rivers and mangroves: Interaction with other ecosystems contributes to the rich biodiversity of the region.

The creation of the park was a crucial step to avoid disorderly exploitation and ensure that future generations could witness the unique beauty of the Lençóis. Over the years, the park has become a symbol of conservation in Brazil, attracting eyes from around the world for its stunning landscape and ecological importance.

Today, by walking through the dunes and diving in its lagoons, you are not only experiencing an unforgettable adventure, but also connecting with a history of millions of years and with the continuous effort to protect this natural treasure. Come be part of this story!

Fascinating curiosities of the Lençóis Maranhenses:

Temporary Ponds, Ephemeral Life: The famous ponds are not permanent! They form during the rainy season (usually from January to June) when rainwater is dammed between the waterproof dunes. With the end of rains and evaporation, many ponds dry up, to reappear in the following year, in a surprising natural cycle.

Fish "Travelers": Despite being freshwater lagoons and isolated between the dunes, some species of fish manage to survive! One of the theories is that their eggs resist the dry period in moist mud and hatch with the return of water. Another hypothesis suggests the arrival of birds that carry the eggs on their paws. It is the resilience of life in a seemingly inhospitable environment!

The Dance of the Dunes: The dunes are not static! The constant action of strong winds, especially during the dry season, molds and moves the dunes continuously. The landscape of Lençóis is always changing, creating new forms and revealing or hiding lagoons. It is a dynamic nature in constant transformation.

A Flooded Desert: Despite its deserted appearance with vast expanses of sand, the Maranhense Sheets receive a relatively high rainfall during the rainy season. This unique combination of heavy rain and strong winds is the secret behind the formation of lagoons.

The "Fault" of the Lazy River: The Lazy River, which winds along the western edge of the park, plays a crucial role in the formation of the Lençóis. It transports sediments from the interior that, when they meet the ocean and the action of the winds, are deposited and shaped into dunes along the coast.

Infrastructure

It offers good infrastructure, with several quality restaurants and local trade. White sand dunes, incredible lagoons of crystal clear waters, lush nature, boat trips in the Rio Preguiça, local gastronomy and lots of excitement! All this awaits you here in Barreirinhas!
